Abstract

The Community Seismic Network (CSN) is a cloud-based, strong-motion network of seismic stations deployed in the greater Los Angeles area. The sensors report three-component acceleration time series data and peak acceleration scalar data for use in assessments of earthquake shaking intensity in buildings and on the ground level, monitoring structural health of instrumented buildings, zonation maps of future shaking potential, and the ShakeAlert earthquake early warning system. The hardware and software behind CSN’s client and server architecture are described, as well as network subarrays deployed at Los Angeles Unified School District campuses, the NASA-JPL campus, and in mid-rises and high-rises.
